Even though we like the trash can as a whole the lid spring mechanism fails over too short of time. Shortly after 1 year. We do have a smaller kitchen and the sensor trips the lid when we walk near it causing it to open more than usual. It may last longer in a larger kitchen.
We've had to reorder new lids for the cans a few times. One time it failed 1 day before the 1 year warranty expired. We called iTouchless and they replaced the lid under the warranty with no problems, had to pay shipping though. You may wonder why we keep reordering lids, all in all it does as advertised but you may have problems with over use in a smaller kitchen.
